Result: face plant left side. My wife has no clue how I ended in the sand.
Ask her to be a good citizen and not litter with her chewing gum.
I've ridden or walked over discarded gum on streets or sidewalks and spent a lot of time cleaning that **** off my recessed SPD cleats, cassette, chain, derailleur, chainring, frame. NOT appreciated.
